“…Certains auteurs pensent qu'il existe une relation étroite entre l'état atopique et les poussées de dysidrose et que la dysidrose est une manifestation atopique chez l'adulte. D'autres nient cette relation [7]. L'hyperhidrose pourrait favoriser la dysidrose.…”

Background: Dysidrosis is a topographic form of eczema with palmar-plantar involvement, with multiple and intricate causes. Our goal is to study the epidemiological, clinical and mycological characteristics of plantar dysidrosis. Material and methods: A retrospective study during 2 years, in the Dermatology Department of Ibn Rochd University Hospital. All adult patients with plantar dysidrosis were included in the study. The data analysis was done with the SPSS 20 software. Results: We collected 112 cases, 64 women and 48 men with a sex ratio of ¾. The average age was 50 years. The average duration of evolution was 6.22 years. Patients consulted for their first episode in 22.7% of cases. Consultations were during summer in 80.4% of cases. Occupational allergy was found in 2.7% of cases; atopy in (14,3); family atopy (5.4); contact eczema (5.4); sport (5.4%); tobacco (12.5%); Moorish baths (17.9%); diabetes (31,3). Plantar involvement was unilateral in 63.6% of cases, associated with lower back (7.3%), palmar involvement (10.9%), intertrigo interortil (44.5%), nail involvement (65.5%). The plantar mycological samples were taken in 81.8% of the cases and were positive in 62.5% of the cases. The culture isolated mostly: Trichophyton rubrum (80%) and Candida albicans (10%). The association of fungal dysidrosis was significant with intertrigo interortils (p = 0.002); onychomycosis (p <0.001); and unilateral localization (p <0.001). Conclusion: Our study highlights the multifactorial nature of plantar dysidrosis. Intertrigo inter toe, the presence of onychomycosis, and unilateral localization are factors significantly associated with fungal plantar dysidrosis.

“…In conclusion, the newly developed UVA1‐LED irradiation device 3 provided therapeutic effects for mycosis fungoides without the use of 8‐methoxypsoralen as a photosensitizer. Treatment of cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma requires a certain number of irradiations per week to suppress the clonal expansion of malignant T cells.…”

“…We developed a UVA1 light‐emitting diode (UVA1‐LED) that theoretically consumes less electricity and produces much less heat. 3 The UVA1‐LED demonstrated phototherapeutic efficacy for dyshidrotic palmoplantar eczema at a UVA1 dose of 30–60 J/cm 2 once a week.UVA1‐LED phototherapy significantly improved the modified dyshidrotic eczema area and severity index (DASI) score. 3 The treatment success suggested that the appropriate dose and frequency of UVA1‐LED phototherapy for dyshidrotic palmoplantar eczema is 30–60 J/cm 2 once a week.…”
